This series can be a serious pain in the ass. I have a little guide for everyone...

I used a Suzuki Kei Works '02 (you can buy it from dealer).

You want to make sure there is a Suzuki Cappuccino (or two) in the race against you. They are the hardest cars and will pump up the A-Spec number...which gives you more room for tuning.

On my car, I have...
- Tires: sports soft
- Intercooler: sports
- Transmission: full customize (we'll talk about this in a second)
- Clutch: triple plate
- FLywheel: SPorts
- Carbon driveshaft: equip
- Limited slip: 1 way

Now, the trick to these races is to get the above Cappuccino opponents, and then you should be able to make the full build above and be just about at 50 A-Spec points. Add some ballast weight if you need.

The BIG trick though is that transmission. Kei cars are factory tuned to be efficient on the MPG... meaning long, boring gears. Customize the transmission ratio to be way closer. It defaults to 4, so bring the ratio down to 2 or 1. This will give you way more acceleration and keep you at high revs. Coupled with the clutch/flywheel, this also will make your shifts faster.

Took me a long time to find a way to beat this stupid challenge, but there ya go.
